AbstractObjective:We report a new temporal bone anomaly – an enlarged superior vestibular nerve canal – associated with sensorineural hearing loss.Case report:A 10-month-old male infant presented with sensorineural hearing loss together with bilaterally enlarged superior vestibular nerve canals. Compared with published temporal bone computed tomography measurements, our patient's canals were normal in length but approximately double the normal width. In addition, careful review of the imaging did not clearly identify a bony wedge between the superior and inferior vestibular nerve canals.Conclusion:Enlarged superior vestibular nerve canal malformation may be a marker for sensorineural hearing loss. Increased vigilance amongst otologists may establish the prevalence of this anomaly and its possible effects on hearing.

Bilateral Sensorineural Hearing Loss

The temporal bone pathology of a 71-year-old man with bilateral sensorineural hearing loss and facial paralysis caused by diffuse metastatic leptomeningeal carcinomatosis is described. The origin of this malignant disease was an extremely rare entity, a transitional cell carcinoma of the renal pelvis. Histopathologic study of the temporal bone demonstrated that tumor cells filled the internal auditory meatus, infiltrated into the Rosenthal's canals, and reached the scala tympani of the basal turn of the bilateral cochleas. The vestibulocochlear nerve and facial nerve trunks in the internal auditory meatus had been destroyed by the bilateral tumor invasion. Case reports of temporal bone metastases of leptomeningeal carcinomatosis published since 1965 were reviewed. In leptomeningeal carcinomatosis, it is suggested that tumor cells infiltrate the internal auditory meatus of both ears simultaneously from the cerebrospinal fluid, involving the seventh and eighth nerve trunks, and then cause bilateral sensorineural hearing loss and facial paralysis.

AbstractBilateral sensorineural hearing loss can be caused by a variety of temporal bone abnormalities including primary cochlear otoscierosis, local and systemic bony diseases and some metabolic conditions. These may be identified using computerized tomography (CT), with attenuation recordings taken across the cochlear capsule (CT densitometry). Eighty patients with bilateral sensorineural hearing loss were screened over a period of six and a half years using this technique, and only three cases (3.8 per cent) of treatable disease were detected. Positive yields may be increased by screening selected cases with other clinical or biochemical stigmata of temporal bone disease.

Bilateral Sensorineural Hearing Loss

Biological age and rates of aging of patients with vibration disease and bilateral sensorineural hearing loss were studied. The biological age of patients exceeded the calendar age by an average of 7.36±0.36 years and the proper biological age by 10.79±0.72 years. The rate of biological aging of the examined patients was 1.14±0.08 times higher than the rate of aging of their healthy peers.

Bilateral Sensorineural Hearing Loss

AbstractBackground:Bilateral sensorineural hearing loss associated with recurrent urticarial skin lesions may be signs of underlying Muckle–Wells syndrome. Previous reports have described the hearing loss to be progressive in nature.Method:To our knowledge, this paper presents the first published case of sudden onset, bilateral sensorineural hearing loss associated with urticarial vasculitis due to underlying Muckle–Wells syndrome.Results:The patient underwent a cochlear implantation with a modest outcome.Conclusion:Cochlear implantation may help to rehabilitate sudden hearing loss associated with this condition, but early diagnosis may allow treatment with interleukin-1β inhibitors such as anakinra.

Bilateral Sensorineural Hearing Loss

AbstractIntroduction:We report our experience with bilateral, simultaneous tympanomastoidectomies and the results of an opinion survey of otologists.Methods:A chart review of 116 tympanomastoidectomies revealed 12 patients who underwent bilateral, simultaneous tympanomastoidectomies. An opinion survey generated 121 responses.Results:Of the 12 patients, none suffered any outcome which would have been avoided by staging the procedures. Twenty-three of 24 operated ears had the same or better hearing post-operatively. Of the survey respondents, 74 felt that performing bilateral, simultaneous tympanomastoidectomies was unsafe, largely because of the risk of bilateral sensorineural hearing loss.Discussion:Although bilateral, simultaneous tympanomastoidectomies carry double the risk of unilateral sensorineural hearing loss, compared with the unilateral procedure, the risk of bilateral sensorineural hearing loss is only 0.006–0.2 per cent, as derived mathematically from historical data. Respondents to the survey were mostly opposed to bilateral, simultaneous tympanomastoidectomies, but even those opposed gave indications for simultaneous procedures. This finding probably reflects an ambivalence about the theoretical risks of the operation versus the potential patient benefits. A decision tree for proceeding to the second case is presented.
